Incredible developments have emerged in the murder case of 29-year-old Pamela Jenini, who was stabbed to death on the balcony of her apartment in Milan, Italy, in October 2025. Specifically, five months after her death, unknown individuals reportedly opened her coffin and removed her skull, according to Italian media reports, causing shock among the public and authorities.
This macabre discovery was made on Monday, March 30, 2026, by cemetery workers who noticed signs of tampering with the coffin during preparations for reburial. The screws had been removed, the lid had been resealed with glue, and inside was only the body, without the unfortunate woman’s skull. Authorities are investigating the case as desecration of a corpse and theft of body parts, crimes that carry up to seven years imprisonment in Italy. Reports suggest three to four individuals may be involved, however the motive behind this horrific act remains unknown.

The murder of Pamela Jenini
The murder of Pamela Jenini had shocked Italy, with her 52-year-old ex-boyfriend, businessman Gianluca Soncin, accused as the main perpetrator. The 29-year-old suffered over 24 stab wounds, following complaints that Soncin was harassing her and pressuring her to reconcile. He allegedly used keys he still possessed to enter her apartment.
Shortly before the attack, Pamela had expressed her fear about her ex-boyfriend’s behavior in a message to a friend. Witnesses testified that she was heard calling for help before authorities arrived. After the crime, Soncin attempted suicide by injuring his throat unsuccessfully and remains in custody facing charges of homicide and stalking.
Police continue investigating to identify and arrest the perpetrators who desecrated Pamela Jenini’s grave. The case remains open, with authorities examining every possible connection between the skull theft and the original crime. The motives behind the grave desecration have not yet been clarified, leaving a mystery that shocks public opinion and Italian authorities.
